Abstract excerpt
Microsatellite, minisatellite and mating type markers were used to determine the genetic structure of the fungus Leptosphaeria maculans within a disease nursery, where Brassica napus lines were screened for resistance to blackleg disease under high inoculum pressure. Fungal isolates were collected from pseudothecia in infected stubble and pycnidia within cotyledon lesions on seedlings within the nursery. Genetic...
